Major US group partners with non-profit organisation to promote aviation safety in Africa

US aerospace group Boeing is partnering with non-governmental organisation (NGO) AviAssist to promote aviation safety in Africa. AviAssist is a non-profit organisation set up in 1995 to provide aviation safety resources and guidance for the African aviation sector, and the giant US company is its latest partner. “Safety is fundamental to the success of our industry, and is a core value for the Boeing team," affirmed Boeing Global Safety and Regulatory Affairs director Akachi Iroezi. “Growth of the aviation industry in Africa depends on the safety of the aviation ecosystem and we are collaborating with customers, regulators and other stakeholders to help strengthen the safety of that ecosystem. Working with AviAssist gives us access to a world-class and effective way of promoting safety in the region.”
